ABSTRACT

Although coating solid dosage forms, like tablets, is a standard practice, it is an important step that gives tablets unique properties. It improves the effectiveness of solid dose forms when taken orally and so satisfies a variety of clinical needs. Tablet coating is a technologically driven process; therefore, it depends on improvements in coating methods, coating equipment, coating tablet evaluation, and coating material. Each of the procedures utilized for coating purposes—which may be based on the use of solvents or solvent-free has advantages and disadvantages, and the techniques themselves require ongoing development. Particularly for those medications that have an active medication in the coating layer, inter- and intra-batch consistency of coated material on the tablets is seen to be a crucial factor that ensures the value of the final product. The impact of operational parameters on the quality of the finished product was actively predicted, and tablet coating variables were optimized, using computational modelling and experimental evaluation. The work done through computer modelling or experimental evaluation results in time and cost savings for the coating process. This paper provides a succinct overview of film coating in solid dosage forms, such as tablets, with an emphasis on the polymers and coating procedures.
